Condition monitoring of these machines is essential to avoid unplanned maintenance and thereby enhance the availability. Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are emerging as an advanced tool for automating condition monitoring process to detect incipient faults at early stages. Machine Learning (ML) algorithms have been identified as a promising approach for condition monitoring of IMs and predicting maintenance to avoid failures. However, selecting the suitable ML algorithm for a given application is challenging because there is no predefined set of application-based algorithms. In addition, raw data processing and feature selection need careful attention to improve the accuracy of the results. This paper reviews supervised ML algorithms that can be used for condition monitoring of IMs and identifies their benefits and drawbacks. It then discusses how the dominant features from raw data can be selected through time domain and frequency domain analysis using the acoustic data collected from a three-phase induction motor. The study investigates classification accuracy of each ML algorithm and a procedure for selecting an algorithm based on the experimental results. Results of this study show that Support Vector Machines (SVM) algorithm outperforms other competing algorithms in condition monitoring of IMs when the dominant frequency components obtained through Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) are used as training data.
